The small Hyuuga heiress walked the busy streets of Konoha, head down, trying to get from point A to point B. Her plan didn't work out well, when she heard their voices. She looked up to see Konohamaru with Moegi and Udon, playing with a frisbee disk. She continued hoping they wouldn't interrupt her.
"Hey, look it's Hanabi!" Moegi yelled, pointing her finger at the dark haired girl. Hanabi was forced to stop and give them a smile, manners came before feelings. She hated them. All they cared for was Naruto, her older sister's boyfriend. She couldn't stand the fact of being envious of one person for so long. The other thing that pissed her off about them, was that they didn't care about training. Training and being a ninja was just a game to them, for Hanabi it was life.
"Do you wanna play frisbee with us?" Konohamaru asked with a grin. Hanabi tried her best not to glare.
"I'm busy." She said quietly before walking away. She made her way to the Hyuuga Palace and went straight to her father.
"Father, will I be learning any new Jutsus soon?" She questioned him, hope in her big, wide eyes.
"Go talk to Neji, I'm sure he has something you can learn." Her father said not giving his daughter a glance. Hanabi did as her dad said. Neji was found in the training field, practicing his 8 tri-grams 64 palms.
"Neji nii-san, I want to learn a new Jutsu." Hanabi demanded, stopping her cousin in the middle of his training.
"Don't you ever take a break, your worse than Lee." Neji said, taking a drink of his water bottle.
"I don't have time to take a break." Hanabi glared.
"Hanabi, you are 12. Go relax. You have plenty of time." Neji calmly stated. Hanabi shook her head.
"If you won't train me, I'll train myself." Hanabi went up to one of the targets and started practicing her taijutsu. Neji left, leaving Hanabi by herself. She trained for the rest of the day. Hanabi decided it was time to head home once the sun was out of view. The training woods appeared scarier as every shadow looked longer. Hanabi kept her guard up by activating Byakugan. No one could sneak up on her. She noticed a dark object flying towards her. Before she had enough time to react, it hit her on the forehead, knocking her over on the moist grass.
Hanabi moaned as she rubbed her forehead. When she looked to her side, she realized what the object was. A frisbee.
"I wasn't quick enough for a frisbee... How am I ever going to win the Chuunin exams!" She groaned.
"Sorry about that!" Konohamaru's voice yelled through the darkness. Hanabi didn't say anything. When she stood up, she wiped the dirt off herself. "Hanabi?"
Hanabi looked up to show him that she heard him.
"Do you hate me?" He asked walking closer, letting the moonlight be the only light in the woods.
"I despise the way you act, not who you are." Hanabi spoke with complete seriousness making Konohamaru feel awkward.
"Is that why you choose to train over friends?"
"I don't need friends, I need to train." She narrowed her eyes.
"When your older and you have a mission with a teamate, you'll need to be able to trust eachother in order to have a successful mission. You can't always rely on ability and training, sometimes its relationships." Konohamaru explained. He had a point and it reached Hanabi. If she wanted to be a powerful ninja, she'd have to trust her teammates.
"Thank you, Konohamaru," She smiled at him. He smiled back, surprised Hanabi smiled.
"Your welco-" Konohamaru stopped himself as Hanabi hugged him.
"I should probably go home." Hanabi said quickly before running off. Konohamaru picked up his frisbee while blushing and walked himself home.
